Fencer: If only you knew how much I'd appreciate it ..... (wanted to give you a flower or something, but figured out I had disabled teh feature, so no smileys at the moment!)

رضا: Why did you disabled the smileys? They should work even if you disable the context menu feature. If not, try ctrl-f5.

Just did it Fencer. Thanks. Here are your flowers :

رضا: Thanks, here is your board.

Fencer: In Iran it's O.K if a man kisses another man, but I'm not sure about there, so here it is anyway :-*

Could we have the match score for a points/wins match above the game, the same way we do in a cube match?

Thanks.

could the current match score from that time be shown above the board when reviewing a game in a match ?

for example i finished a match and now i want to know what the match score was at the end of the 3rd game, but it will just show the final match score

(i will have to go through all previous games and count up the match score from that to the point which i want to view)

Would be nice if there was a feature that could be used in fellowships and message boards to make a hall of fame. People can submit there entries and a moderater can aprove the entry and it is automatically added in the right place.

For example in Ludo we started a hall of fame for most consecutive passes would be nice if people could just enter number of passes, the game and hit submit.

Can the Brainking April Action Box be hidden or moved?

Summertop: I doubt it could be hidden since that is a benefit of joining.

Summertop: Since you are a rook, you should have a link to hide or close it.

alanback: its gone!!!

would it be possible to list what stair we are on when playing a game eg. standard stair5/8

Fencer, thank you for the green dots on the fellowship pages! :)

Mr. Shumway: You are fast.

Is there a way to get the statistics on dice roles?

mctrivia: Of course. But what would be a purpose of that?
If one roll appears to be more used than the other ones, someone would jump and cry "the dice are not fair!". And it will start another endless discussion and argument.

Fencer: Because I am currious. I have seen many random number generater algeritherms that have lower probability on the extreme values. I.E. 1 and 6. Ideally after several million roles they should be pretty close to falling 16% of the time. If they don't a simple fix to the lower odds of falling on the extremes is to randomly chose between 0 and 7 and re role if 0 or 7 comes up.

mctrivia: Sounds like a bug in the algorithm to me, why would they program it like that?

grenv: not usually done on perpose. It just depends what kind of rounding formula is used on the random table. Most random formulas generate a number between 0 and 1 you then multiply that up to get a number between say 0 and 5. Add 1 and you 1 to 6 but if you round the numbers to the nearest whole number you will get 2 to 5 being more likely and 1 and 6 being not as often.

Errr I think he basically said no because it would cause trouble, which I can definitely see. Next feature please :)

mctrivia: if the original number (0-1) was random then it wouldn't have that effect, unless 0 and 1 are not possible or something like that.
Would the result be less random than a real dice I wonder?

I'd like to search the BugTracker before reporting a new bug to avoid double reporting bugs and pseudobugs :)

It would be a killer feature to receive a message everytime an answer is given on a bugreport I made ;)

when you click the options...it says like go to next game,go to next game of this type,go to next game with this player,etc...it would be nice to have the option of go to game with least amount of time,or something to that effect of wording,so that when I am trying to get those games caught up I don't have to go to the main page everytime.

anastasia: You can simply choose "go to next game" and on your settings page set the "sort next games by" to "the same column as on the main page". Then just get your games on the main page sorted by time remaining, and it works! :)

Mr. Shumway: Thank you..I just went and changed it

alanback: Well, I don't see a link to turn it off. I would really like the ability to turn off these advertisements. Every other site lets paid members hide/get rid of advertisements. I would even be happy if I could place it somewhere else.

Brainking is a GREAT site (thanks Fencer). But there are two main issues I have with it.

First...Sabotage hasn't been finished! EVERY other game lets you see captured/lost pieces! This is crucial to Sabotage...

Second...Annoying adds ABOVE my fellowships list.

Some fellowships have LOTS of members. Every once in a while, I wonder if a specific person is a member of the fellowship. Since they are in the order they joined, it is very difficult to search. It would be nice to either add a search feature or sort the list my membership level (Big boss, manager, member) then name.

Summertop: I wouldn't call four short lines of text "annoying".

Fencer: well...personal peference. Since I am inundated with ads, every time I can't remove them, I get annoyed. However, it does violate your current membership features list. According to the list I should be able to "...hide advertisements...".

Will it stop me from visiting...No!
Will it stop me from renewing...No!
Will I continue to recommend BK...Yes!



*Edited to fix broken link*

Fencer: Oh, since I belong to a very limited number of fellowships...the new ad box forces me to have to scroll to see the last few fellowships. Previously, they all fit inside the visible window. That is why it is annoying.

Hmmm...how lazy are we when we complain about having to scroll a wheel on the mouse?

Do I understand it correctly that now if you use cloak mode you cannot see the "last action" of other players?

Czuch Chuckers: It has always been like that. I have had my cloak mode on for the past few months, and I see either "cloak mode" for other players with cloak mode, or "disabled when you are cloaked"

Note: You can still see the time of last action of a player either way.

BIG BAD WOLF: Thats what I was wondering... I thought I read something on the brainking board about the "last action" being hidden? I have been asking for it to be disabled because I dont like it being used in pond games, I think if somebody is using cloak mode the "last move time" should be invisible to them. Has anything been changed or did I miss read something?

Czuch Chuckers: I don't think that anything has been changed

I really like the fact that pending game invites are on the main page. Could it be expanded to include pending tournaments?

Thanks!

What about the game of Mill? I know of one other site that has it, www.pocket-monkey.com. It is a fun game, and it would fit well with the games that are already here.

could we see not only minimum, maximum and average of the last round, but also the median?

Does the "Vacation Days Left" on the profile page include vacation days that are scheduled in the future, or have those already been subtracted?

alanback: Actually I just checked - if you schedule a vacation day, the total on the profile also goes down one day.

BIG BAD WOLF: That's what I thought. It explains why my opponent's listed available days have not been reduced while he is on scheduled vacation.

why can´t I create a tournament of Ludo in my fellowship?

Andre Faria: You've got to create a Ludo team first. :)

Andre Faria: If you have not already, you first need to add the game to the fellowship list of games (teams).

You should then be able to create a tournament.

(Note: After the tournament is created, you can remove the team if you don't want it there any longer.)

BIG BAD WOLF: LOL, you must have Pedro on hide? Or type faster, it looks like

Pedro Martínez and BBW: Ups, of course... Sorry, my fault... LOL

Czuch Chuckers: Took me a little longer (36 seconds) to type all the I typed it looks like.

Some may say I have no class
To request again for autopass

But perhaps its time is finally here
cuz getting stuck in Ludo, my greatest fear

It's one pass, two passes, three passes, four
Another pass???? I can't take it any more!!

Me and my opponent had passes all week
If you don't believe me, go take a peek.

So now Mr Fencer, if your answer is no,
I'll fully understand, and start playing go

Let's hear your answer, please take your time,
But whatever you write, it must be in rhyme.

;)

Groucho: hey :) i sended to Filip a list with over 20 request including the one u asking now here it is my list wich later was update with more request like 10 more :
ok here is the list :
1) go to next game where most moves have been made
2) go to next game of team vs team
3) fix please my tourneis numbers
4) italian checkers
5) russian checkers
6) poddavki or give away checkers(russian checkers but to lose)
7) 3 moves pre set for italian and regular checkers
8) a page of statistic for the teams
9) cards games (hearts and /or spades)
10) invent or modify simple cards games (i have one in italian calls scopa wich means sweap play with 40 cards 10 for each suit where from 1 to 10 the most cards gets by adding the other cards like if i have 3 and there are 1 and 2 on table i get all and do sweap all ) maybe u could do that with 13 cards of poker and do a game to 7 points by giving 1 point for the one who has most hearts cards ,1 point for the queen of hearts etc (that is where u have to personalize ) of course must see what is the support of software in this case
11) must have a word game ( i suggest u ask pergioco for help )
12)must have a puzzle game maybe the now famous su doku (like each players put on his turn a number)
13)sports game to play vs opponent
14) look (i am sure maybe u have already) on pogo, on gamestalks , on ludonet ,on kurnik , on iwin , on hardwoodhearts , on msn gaming zone,on yahoo,on clik.to/Abstrakta ,on vog .
this is for now :)
he answered me about your request and said that it couldn't have been done because is not supported by the system ..
i know is bad (and no one hate that more than me since i play over 2200 games) so lets hope that maybe ludo could be lets say updated to avoid the stall ? :)

francescolr: You should have submitted it in rhyme!
